Spring Fund Driveby Will Murphy, WFIU Station Operations Director

This month faithful WFIU listeners will hear something they don’t usually hear: a spring fund drive. Most public radio stations conduct at least two fund drives per year. WFIU has typically had just one. On only two occasions in its 65-year history has the station held a spring membership drive.

The reason we’re having a drive this spring is simple: we didn’t make our goal for the fund drive last fall—we fell about $65,000 short. So $65,000 is our goal this spring. Beyond that, our hope is two-fold: to increase the number of “sustaining” members—listeners who contribute a regular monthly amount on an ongoing basis; secondly, we’d like to give those listeners who, for whatever reason, weren’t able to give last fall another opportunity to support the programming that brings so much value to our lives.

To those who contributed last fall, or who are sustaining members—thank you for your support. And thank you for your patience as we look to bring in new members and return lapsed members into the fold.

The drive runs April 9th –14th. We hope you’ll help us in reaching our goal by making a pledge on-line or by phone.

Thank you!

leaving the airIn late February, just before the deadline for this edition of Directions in Sound, we were advised by the producers of Sound Medicine that the program will come to an end this month, after 15 years on the air. A source close to the production says two of the three entities funding the show—Indiana University and the IU School of Medicine—opted to invest their marketing dollars elsewhere. WFIU Station Operations Director Will Murphy says staff are working to find a successor for the show. Your comments and suggestions are welcome at wfiu@indiana.edu.

Sound Medicine has been on WFIU since the program was first launched. It will air Sunday nights at 6 p.m. on our main channel through April 24th.

How are we doing?We’re always looking for ways to improve your public radio station. This month, we’d like your specific suggestions about what we can do to better serve you.

What could we add to our program lineup that would make you want to listen more?

Send your answer to listener@wfiu.org.

Sundays at noonJazz NotesApril is Jazz Appreciation Month, and the calendar will also mark milestones for two notable jazz artists.

WFIU’s Friday evening programs Afterglow and Night Lights will each pay tribute to the centennial of Billie Holiday on April 10, with Afterglow host Mark Chilla highlighting the singer’s big band recordings, while Night Lights’ David Brent Johnson features her late-period, small-group recordings for the Verve label.

The following Friday, Night Lights celebrates the 75th birthday of pianist Herbie Hancock with a look at his recordings of the 1960s, both as a leader and with Miles Davis.

On Thursday, April 30, our weekday afternoon program Just You and Me celebrates International Jazz Day with previously unreleased live recordings from guitarist Wes Montgomery’s Indianapolis days. Be sure to tune in on Fridays when “Brother William” Morris takes over DJ duties; his 4 p.m. “Four Spot” features will include Van Morrison, Etta James, Chick Corea, and Herbie Hancock.

The Radio-Television News Endowment Fund In 2012 the Radio-Television News Endowment Fund was opened with a generous gift from Laura Ginger, emerita professor from the IU Kelley School of Business.

Small, but growing, the endowment fund has allowed WFIU to make the first drawdown from the accumulated interest to put $1,000 towards the annual cost of bringing Morning Edition to listeners across southern and central Indiana. Endowment earnings will help Radio-Television Services purchase, expand, and produce news programming for both WFIU and WTIU forever—helping to sustain the most trusted news programs in public broadcasting.

The fund is held and invested by the Indiana University Foundation. Additional gifts can be made at any time to help increase the endowment. To make a gift, send a check made out to the IU Foundation/News Fund and mail it to the IU Foundation at PO Box 500, Bloomington, IN 47402, and put the account number 37-0008060 in the memo field. We thank you!

8:00 PM AFTERGLOWThe Jazz Singer-SongwritersWhen you think “singer-songwriter,” you usually imagine Joni Mitchell, Paul Simon, or another acoustic-guitar-wielding folk singer.

Starting in the mid-1980s some composers in Latin America broke away from the constraints imposed by the avant-garde and “experimental” orthodoxies. These composers wanted to recover a warmer relationship with their audience as well as the freedom of exploring everything, even the traditions of both popular and classical music. Host Elbio Barilari presents works by Miguel Del Aguila, Juan David Osorio, and even a 21st-century Baroque piece by Mexican composer Jesús Echeverría.

8:00 PM AFTERGLOWI Get a Kick Out of . . . A drink, a smoke, too much coffee. We all have our vices—jazz musicians notoriously so. As much as we try to kick the habit, these vices can inspire great music. Tonight, host Mark Chilla presents songs about unsavory habits, including “Love is Like a Cigarette,” “Lush Life,” and “Black Coffee.”

Eva-Maria Westbroek (Cav) and Patricia Racette (Pag) play the unlucky heroines. Met Principal Conductor Fabio Luisi is on the podium.

10:00 PM FOLKTALESFolktale of Shame“Shame is a soul-eating emotion,” according to C.G. Jung. Many folkworlds believe that shame has a short memory, but musical traditions do not. Host Julia Meek invites you to hear what shame sounds like, all around the musical globe.

11:00 AM RADIOLABPlaceboWith new research demonstrating the startling power of the placebo effect, this hour of Radiolab examines the chemical consequences of belief and imagination.

This month on WTIU television

Tuesday, April 28, 9:00–11:00 p.m.

April 1975. During the chaotic final days of the Vietnam War, as the North Vietnamese Army closed in on Saigon, South Vietnamese resistance crumbled. City after city and village after village fell to the North.

To the U.S. diplomats and military operatives still in Saigon, it was clear that a Communist victory was inevitable. The Americans grew increasingly concerned for the safety of their South Vietnamese allies, co-workers, and friends who faced imprisonment or death following a North Vietnamese victory.

With the city under fire, American officers on the ground faced with a moral dilemma: whether to follow official policy and evacuate U.S. citizens and their dependents only, or to ignore their orders and save the Vietnamese men, women, and children they had come to love in their years in Vietnam.

Risking their careers and possible courts-martial, a handful of individuals took matters into their own hands. Engaging in unsanctioned operations, they waged a desperate effort to evacuate as many South Vietnamese as possible.

Most of the action on that final day took place at the U.S. Embassy in Saigon, where thousands of South Vietnamese hoping to secure a last-minute evacuation scaled the walls while a U.S. intelligence analyst ran his own underground railroad of evacuees to barges on the Saigon River.

In the final hours of the evacuation, Ambassador Graham Martin used American resources meant for his own protection to extract thousands of South Vietnamese during an 18-hour airlift from the embassy compound.

Philanthropy Made Easyby Nancy KruegerGifts and Grants Officer

Your largest single financial asset may be the tax-deductible contributions to retirement plans you make during your working years.

But while retirement plans like TIAA-CREF, traditional IRAs, or 401(k) plans are excellent vehicles to accruing wealth, they are not effective at transferring it to heirs.

If you pass on before you deplete your retirement plan savings, the taxation on them can be surprisingly high. Those retirement dollars will be subject to taxation by the IRS. That could substantially reduce the remainder of your account, resulting in a gift that is not as generous as you may have intended for your beneficiaries!

Charitable giving offers an alternative to having your retirement assets eaten up by taxes. Consider designating your retirement plan balance to worthwhile causes, such as a nonprofit you value, and redirecting assets with less tax liability to your family and friends.

Making a gift through your retirement plan is simple and does not require a lawyer. All you need do is contact the retirement plan administrator and request a beneficiary form.

There are a multitude of options. You could choose five different charities and designate 20% of your remaining retirement savings to each organization, escaping all taxes. Or you can have your spouse named as primary beneficiary with WFIU as the secondary beneficiary, or, you could designate 90% to your spouse and 10% of the remainder to WFIU.

Of course, consulting with a lawyer is always wise, but the process is simple enough that no legal assistance is required.
